I had this issue with another database and after some searching discovered that changing the sys user's temporary tablespace to be locally managed rather than dictionary, the dbua proceeded. I have done the same with this database to now avail. Apart from this tweak, does anyone else have any idea what the problem is and whether there's a workaround? Thanks in advance.

If I have to choose between two evils, I always like to choose the one I haven't tried yet.

Merci beaucoup! The document was useful insofar as confirming me in my belief that I had done everything necessary, with the exception of changing system's temporary tablespace to the newly created one too. Having done that, the upgrade sailed through.

Again, many thanks.
